2. No
Edited on Tue Jul-17-07 04:30 PM by some guy
WIMR posted yesterday. I haven't seen mmr lately. I'm not sure who else is missing, but there used to be more of you younguns.

I have a hard time keeping track of who is how old, though I know of an 18 year old, who doesn't like having their age talked about, so I won't mention who it is.

edit: and of course Primate1 is still around.

21. ah yes - i've been doing chores today as well
i had to clean up all of the popcorn, toys, and other mess from my little sisters' little slumber party last night. i had to do the dishes wash and fold clothes, unpack since most of my clothes are in a suitcase(though i shouldn't have done that when i'm leaving again on thursday). i also had to go do some grocery shopping(NOT at the windixie this time, lol) because i didn't pick up a few things yesterday because of the perv in the store. i did all this and still found time to post on DU and chat with some friends. ;)

and you should have punched that guy in the nuts ( that is, if he had any ). Someone makes a remark like that, and you knee him in the nuts from now on, OK? Otherwise, I'm going to have to come out there and wreak some frigging havoc. :evilgrin:

45. GET OFF MY LAWN!!!



:shakes fist:



Seriously tho, some of the people here and the younger folks especially seem to disappear in the summertime, I'm guessing bc their days are less structured sans school, and there is usually way lots funner stuff to do outdoors during the summer months as opposed to sitting indoors behind a computer, which they can do any old time.


Just my guess.

56. I know
I feel like my life is just starting but it also seems weird that people born in 1990 are 17. It seems like they should be in preschool. Also, sometimes I think to myself, "It's been X number of years since X event happened in my life. wow." A year used to be forever and now I feel like I sneeze and a year passes.
